Gainzo Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Here what's heading my way: SNOW WILL BE STEADIEST AND HEAVIEST DURING THE EVENING COMMUTE THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS... THEN TAPER OFF TO FLURRIES PRIOR TO DAYBREAK. SNOW ACCUMULATIONS OF 3 TO 6 INCHES ARE EXPECTED IN THESE AREAS. BITTERLY COLD AIR WILL ENTER THE REGION TONIGHT. OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE SINGLE DIGITS AND LOWER TEENS. BUT STRONG WINDS BEHIND THE DEPARTING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL COMBINE WITH THESE FRIGID TEMPERATURES TO CAUSE THE WIND CHILL INDEX TO DROP TO BETWEEN 15 AND 22 DEGREES BELOW ZERO. AT THESE WIND CHILL READINGS... EXPOSED FLESH WILL FREEZE IN AS LITTLE AS 30 MINUTES. Isn't lving in the Northeast fantastic. I especially like the exposed flesh line.

GreenBeans Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 The only problem with that is when they get 1/2" of snow on the ground down South everything shuts down! Tell me about it, I live right outside the city < Raleigh > that happened to in January. Freakin' hysterical to see, especially the next morning when there were hundreds of cars littering all of the major roadways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
